1.1
This specification covers forged, quenched and tempered, alloy steel threaded eyebolts with improved toughness properties and intended primarily for low temperature applications. The eyebolts are chemically and metallurgically constituted to produce a low transition temperature to minimize brittle failure. Maximum thread size is 2.500 in. (63.50 mm).
1.2
The eyebolts are furnished in two types, as follows:
1.2.1
Type 1—
Straight Shank Eyebolt.
1.2.2
Type 2—
Shoulder Eyebolt.
